Give Zuck the ultimate downvote by downvoting his whole platform and get off Facebook.

Currently doing so. Maybe I'm not blocking the right one?

Begging the new oligarchy and self appointed media monarchs for a feature is pathetic. Get the fuck off Facebook already. And Instagram and snapchat and as many of those third world shithole social media scams as possible.

Online feeds need to be regulated. If a feed is non chronological and contains feeds from people you don’t know, it’s ripe grounds for exploitation. You talk to people from different countries and they have the same preprogrammed diatribe. This was not the case before the rise of social media monopolies. Large companies and governments have full control over not what you think, but how you think. This was pure fantasy for thousands of years until now. Non chronological feeds that use AI need to be made illegal, or have their source code and dataset open to the public.

The article raises an important point, which is that platforms only allow for positive reactions to content under the false pretense of spreading positivity or whatever, but only resulting in the complete opposite effect. By painting the act of disagreement as unnatural and unwanted you're doing nothing except radicalize people.

the downvote will die out and I'll be glad to see it go upvoting and withholding upvotes are sufficient to me (plus commenting)
